har dam duaen dena har lahza aahen bharna
un ka bhi kaam karna apna bhi kaam karna

han kis ko hai mayassar ye kaam kar guzarna
ek bankpan se jina ek bankpan se marna

jo zist ko na samjhen jo maut ko na jaanen
jina unhin ka jina marna unhin ka marna

teri inayaton se mujh ko bhi aa chala hai
teri himayaton mein har har qadam guzarna

sahil ke lab se puchho dariya ke dil se puchho
ek mauj-e-tah-nashin ka muddat ke baad ubharna

ai shauq tere sadqe pahuncha diya kahan tak
ai ishq tere qurban jina hai ab na marna

har zarra aah jis ka labrez-e-tishnagi hai
us khak ki bhi jaanib ai abr-e-tar guzarna

dariya ki zindagi par sadqe hazar jaanen
mujh ko nahin gawara sahil ki maut marna

ranginiyan nahin to ranaiyan bhi kaisi
shabnam si naznin ko aata nahin sanwarna

ashkon ko bhi ye jurat allah ri teri qudrat
aankhon tak aate aate phir dil mein ja thaharna

ai jaan-e-naz aa ja aankhon ki rah dil mein
in khushk naddiyon se mushkil ho kiya guzarna

hum be-khudan-e-gham se ye raaz koi sikhe
jina magar na jina marna magar na marna

kuchh aa chali hai aahat us pa-e-naz ki si
tujh par khuda ki rahmat ai dil zara thaharna

khun-e-jigar ka hasil ek sher-e-tar ki surat
apna hi aks jis mein apna hai rang bharna
